Somebody Get Me Some Oxygen

La Paz is at 12,000 feet, and even though I live at 7,000, it's still an adjustment. Yesterday we went to the Museo de la Coca (Cocaine Museum) and learned all about the properties of the coca leaf, such as it helps people cope with the altitude. We also went to the moon--the Valley of the Moon, that is. It's a stark and rough landscape near La Paz. The golf course (world's highest) is the backdrop for the valley, so that ruins the effect of being on the moon. The lack of oxygen is similar, though. More later on yesterday's tour and our activities today.
